Paradigm MINI MONITOR 書架式揚聲器
Paradigm的monitor 系列的高音單體全部使用純鈦金屬作為振膜,原廠稱之為「H-PTD」單體。「H-PTD」為High-Efficiency Pure-Titanium Domes的縮寫,從字面上就可以知道高音採用純鈦作為振膜,取其質量輕、剛性高的特色,並且刻意設計成高輸出的版本,原廠宣稱這樣的設計比許多高價High End喇叭的高音單體還好。
加拿大Paradigm是一家技術底子深厚的喇叭專業廠家,他們所推出的產品總是有有著超值的評價,連美國Audio Magazine的編輯Corey Greenberg聽過Mini Monitor之後,直接給了這樣的評語:「我聽過其他定價超過2000美金,但一樣使用6吋中低音的兩音路書架喇叭,聲音表現還比不上Mini Monitor!」嘿!這Mini Monitor可真的是越級挑戰喔。
說Paradigm技術底子厚,是因為他們從單體、分音器到箱體全部自己來,而不是買外面現成的零件來組裝。Mini Monitor是一款很典型的兩音路低音反射式喇叭,搭載1吋H-PTD高音單體,加上6.5吋M-ICP振膜中低音單體,這兩個單體都是 Paradigm的獨門技術。原廠標示的頻率響應是70Hz~20kHz,看起來不算特別驚人,但是這個測試數據標準是+/-2dB的範圍,比一般測試標 準還要嚴苛。如果用比較寬鬆的標準來測量,Paradigm給了另外一個數字,這Mini Monitor的低頻延伸最低可達43Hz,以書架喇叭而論,確實不簡單了。
Mini Monitor的效率不錯,原廠標示92dB,建議搭配擴大機為15∼150瓦,阻抗8歐姆,此外原廠還有專屬腳架可以搭配。從外觀上而言,Mini Monitor顯得有些保守,但Paradigm可是把好技術都放進Mini Monitor裡面,而且想盡辦法用最合理的價格供應市場,對於「重內涵」的玩家而言,Paradigm不會讓你失望的。

Rome Wasn’t Built in A Day. Neither Was Monitor.
It took three emperors and 15 years to build Rome’s colosseum, architecture that still elicits awe centuries later. And while we’re not so bold as to compare the colosseum to the new Series 7, you have to admit the speakers look more than a little awesome in the backdrop of Ancient Rome. Good architecture will stand up well over time, as will good sonic architecture. Our Monitor Series 7 is a classic example. Now in its seventh iteration, each new generation is an opportunity for refinement: design innovations from our higher-priced reference lineups, reference-quality component parts, cabinets and even finishes! When it comes to getting value for your money, it doesn’t get better than Monitor Series 7. Since its inception, the Monitor Series has been a favorite of audiophiles on a budget — with Series 7, that hasn’t changed.
We can’t promise it will still be around in two thousand years, but we can promise it will play louder, plumb deeper, look smarter and sound better than any other brand in its price range.
The Building Blocks: Monitor Drivers
Advanced S-Pal™ Satin-Anodized Pure-Aluminum Bass/Midrange Cones. First seen in our Paradigm Reference lineup, very high stiffness-to-mass ratio and outstanding internal damping. The result? Remarkable midrange clarity, superb extended bass response and freedom from unwanted resonances and distortions. In an affordable audio category – unbelieveable quality!
Advanced S-PAL™ Satin-Anodized Pure-Aluminum Domes with powerful neodymium magnets and ferro-fluid cooling for increased power handling! Highs are more soaring and spacious, crystal clear and undiluted even at the higher bandwidths.
Wire Mesh Tweeter Guard and WaveGuide™. More Reference technology, ensuring a smooth, wide panorama of audiophile-quality sound. Wire mesh protection for the pure-aluminum tweeter.
Sophisticated crossovers in an affordable audiophile product! Again, it’s almost unheard of: polypropylene film or bipolar electrolytic capacitors, air core and laminated core inductors, high-power resistors. Crossover topologies are first and second-order with corresponding acoustic slopes of second and third-order providing optimal bandwidth and seamless integration as drivers cross over.
Long-Travel Motor/Magnet Structures. Despite fewer drivers than in previous series’, floorstanding and center channel speakers actually plumb deeper. This is, in part, attributable to the advanced motor/magnet structures: high-temperature copper or aluminum wire voice coils (varies by model) wound on Kapton formers, oversized magnets with all components FEA-optimized.
Foam-Rubber Elastomer Surrounds. Reference Studio Series geometry!
Help achieve that play loud AND play deep effect by allowing longer, expertly controlled cone travel.
Baffled about Baffles? Don’t Be!
For those of you who are wondering. A baffle is the surface on which the speakers or drivers are mounted. It prevents the front and rear sound waves from interfering with each other causing sound cancellation, as well as to absorb sound energy, particularly problematic reflected sound. So a speaker baffle is pretty darn important.
The new Monitor Series 7 baffle is a work of art – worthy of a spot in the arches of a colosseum. It boasts …
A clean aesthetic, nothing to see but the the beautiful drivers, no screws or fasteners visible
Thick and rigid ¾˝ MDF across the lineup
FEA-optimized (including a stress analysis) to overcome the limitations of the physical materials.
A modal frequency analysis allowed us to deliver the most resonance-, vibration- and coloration-free Monitor Series cabinet to date!
Critically tuned to the rest of the cabinet
Rap on the baffle … you’ll hurt nothing but your knuckles!
